It can be challenging to force yourself to start a bunch of productive habits out of nowhere. Luckily, with a few minor changes, anyone can set the stage for success. 1 . With the right attitude and a little effort, you’ll be crossing tasks off of your to-do list faster than you can write them out!
Use a daily planner
2 . Being productive has more to do with organization than effort, so put 5~10 minutes aside every night (or morning) to map out how you’re going to spend the day ahead of you.
Complete important tasks before lunch
Most people are more productive in the morning, so do key tasks early. If you want to pitch a new service to a few important clients, make those calls before noon. If you’re struggling to maintain your energy later in the day and you aren’t at work, take a short rest. 3 .
Declutter your home or workspace
A clean desk and an organized home will help you stay focused. 4 . At the end of each day, spend a few minutes throwing out the trash, putting things away, and organizing your workspace or home to get rid of clutter.
5
It’s hard to be productive if you think you’re doing something pointless. Start pushing yourself to find the significance in every single thing you do before you start. If you walk around all day feeling like you’re wasting your time, you’re never going to get anything done!
A. Find the value in the boring stuff
B. Reward yourself for building habits
C. Mapping your day out will keep you focused on what’s important
D. All it takes is a little bit of preparation and a healthy dose of positive thinking
E. A 20-minute nap is a great way to put yourself back into a productive headspace
F. It may be hard to push through that first week if you aren’t used to doing something
G. Chaos has a way of drawing your attention away from whatever task you’re trying to do
